Hi, Has anyone got experience of taking a blood glucose kit in hand luggage please?
I was only diagnosed in September and January will be the first time I've flown since. I'm aware they don't allow hypodermics on planes without a prescription but will the small needles in the lancets used for finger pricking cause any problems?
I don't want to risk my kit being confiscated at security but I don't want to take time off work to get a letter from the doctor about it if I don't need to
thanks
